"new 7th street extension" Hello, I am a cycling commuter. I go from the east side to the west side of town and use 7th street and the new tunnel under bypass. The new 7th street connection to this tunnel has an extra high "lip" on the sidewalk/driveway entrance to this tunnel. If you could shave it down to create a more gentle slope for skinny bike tires it would make the ride from the road into the tunnel (going east) much safer. thank you.
Water appears to be flowing under the street. A hole has formed on the side of the road (Walnut Street Pike) about 6 inches diameter and don't know how deep. I stepped into it while mowing. I believe it is a matter of time before the road surface is impacted; not to mention a hazard to people.
Street light between 611 and 635 W. Guy Ave flashes all night. Mr George Moore @ 635 asked if I could have someone look into it. I think it may be private
Eastbound left-turn signal operates even when no car is in the left-turn lane (from eastbound 3rd St onto northbound Smith)
Vernal and 37 yellow light to short for bike crossing 37. The last couple of days I've entered the Vernal-37 crossing on a green had it switch to a yell just before the center and red before I finished the crossing. It's not just a bike issue as I can easily keep up with traffic as it accelerates across 37.
The street seems to have buckled due to heat or excessive weight and is a hazard to neighborhood traffic. The source of the problem is unknown but it seems to be getting worse over a short period of time. Location is National Point Road in Ketcham Ridge Estates.
The street light doesn't and it is scary to walk home at night without it.
benches at bus stops There are a lot of elderly/handicapped individuals who ride the #2 Countryview bus to and from Krogers Seminary square. For some reason the benches on the west side of Krogers were removed. I contacted Bloomington Transit and they said it was the city that removed them. I was told it was because too many "street" people hang out there so this is to discourage that. It does not make sense since the bus stop on the east side of Krogers, closer to the park where those people hang out. The other thing that makes no sense is to inconvenience senior citizens over a situation that would seem to be something that the police patrol should be able to discourage by driving by often, especially those golf cart looking vehicles or bike patrols since it is part of the bline trail. Since the grocery is expanding and updating probably even more people will come there I would like to request that thosebenches be replaced. I can get a petition signed by passengers if it will do any good.
Just put $1.50 in new parking meter and it didn't register payment! Jon Lawrence
